Locally repairable codes (LRCs) are a class of codes designed for the local correction of erasures. They have received considerable attention in recent years due to their applications in distributed storage. Most existing results on LRCs do…
Locally repairable codes (LRCs) have recently been widely used in distributed storage systems and the LRCs with $(r,\delta)$-locality ($(r,\delta)$-LRCs) attracted a lot of interest for tolerating multiple erasures. Ge et al. constructed…

Families of "asymptotically regular" LDPC block code ensembles can be formed by terminating (J,K)-regular protograph-based LDPC convolutional codes. By varying the termination length, we obtain a large selection of LDPC block code ensembles…
We give new lower bounds for $M(n,d)$, for various positive integers $n$ and $d$ with $n>d$, where $M(n,d)$ is the largest number of permutations on $n$ symbols with pairwise Hamming distance at least $d$. Large sets of permutations on $n$…
In this paper we give a recursive algorithm to construct two families of $(0,1)$-matrices, one sparse regular and the other dense. We study various properties of the two families of $(0,1)$-matrices built with our algorithm. We present a…
Based on the extended binary image of non-binary LDPC codes, we propose a method for generating extra redundant bits, such as to decreases the coding rate of a mother code. The proposed method allows for using the same decoder, regardless…

It is well known that, given \(b\ge 0\), finding an $(a,b)$-trapping set with the minimum \(a\) in a binary linear code is NP-hard. In this paper, we demonstrate that this problem can be solved with linear complexity with respect to the…
Let $N(d,d^\perp)$ denote the minimum length $n$ of a linear code $C$ with $d$ and $d^{\bot}$, where $d$ is the minimum Hamming distance of $C$ and $d^{\bot}$ is the minimum Hamming distance of $C^{\bot}$. In this paper, we show a lower…

One approach to designing structured low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes with large girth is to shorten codes with small girth in such a manner that the deleted columns of the parity-check matrix contain all the variables involved in…
In this paper, we first generalize the class of linear codes by Ding and Ding (IEEE TIT, 61(11), pp. 5835-5842, 2015). Then we mainly study the augmented codes of this generalized class of linear codes. For one thing, we use Gaussian sums…
We generalize a construction of non-binary quantum LDPC codes over $\F_{2^m}$ due to \cite{KHIS11a} and apply it in particular to toric codes. We obtain in this way not only codes with better rates than toric codes but also improve…
A new construction is proposed for low density parity check (LDPC) codes using quadratic permutation polynomials over finite integer rings. The associated graphs for the new codes have both algebraic and pseudo-random nature, and the new…
